#Orange10 Meat Up @ the Varsity
Posted on20. Apr, 2010 by Kenny.
What? Yes, I wrote that right, it’s a Meat Up! It’s not an official Orange event by any means. The official Tweet Up is on Wednesday night (April 28th) at 10:00 PM. This is just a little get together the night before.
Last year we held the first Tweet Up at the Varsity on Tuesday, the night before everything started. I can’t tell you how helpful it was to get to know some people, put names to faces and hang out a little before the business of Orange. That way when I saw people in the halls walking around, I already knew them. I also love the Varsity. Anytime I’m in Atlanta, I go at least one time. Their Onion Rings are incredible. Whether you like hot dogs or hamburgers, the Varsity won’t do you wrong! It’s a city landmark and I wouldn’t miss it.
So, if you’re in Atlanta on Tuesday night, April 27th, feel free to join me at the Varsity for a little Meat Up action. I’ll be there with people like Jonathan Cliff, Sam Luce, Gina McClain, Matt McKee and others. You don’t have to be a blogger or on twitter. Just someone who wants to hang out with other kidmin and stumin leaders. We’ll probably arrive a little before 9:00 PM and hang out for a few hours. Hope to see you there!
BTW, there’s more than one varsity. We’ll be at the one in down town ATL, the original:
61 North Ave Northwest
Atlanta, GA 30308-2166
(404) 881-1706

Official Orange Tweetup: Mark Your Calendar
Posted on17. Feb, 2009 by Kenny.
Last week I announced the Orange Tweetup. Seems like most are going to be able to make it. I do really hate that there are some people who will still be traveling and may not be able to make it, but I think overall, Tuesday night is the best night for this endeavor. Wednesday night would be the second ideal night as it’s still early in the conference and a good opportunity to meet people we’re going to see in the hallways; however, the conference doesn’t let out until 10:30 PM and the Varsity closes at 11:30 PM. Lunch time? Fighting the conference traffic, there just isn’t enough time for a popper Tweetup.
So, make your plans now! Tuesday at 9:00 at The Varsity in downtown Atlanta. Oh, I can taste it now… and feel the heartburn. I’m going to try to get pre-registered as early as possible and be at the Varsity by 8:30. I’ll post more information as we get closer. Let me know if you planning on coming and I’ll create a roster of attendees so everyone will know who’s coming.
For those of you who can’t make it, don’t fret, you’ll still get your chance. There are some things in the works where bloggers and twitterers will have multiple opportunities to hang out and connect. Get ready for the most “connected” conference you’ve ever been to.
